Another Tune from the Feelies Some Kinda Love LP

Leave a comment

On a day when there just didn’t seem to be a lot to fall in love with, why not go with the tried-and-true classics, like the Feelies covering the Velvet Underground. As I’ve previously mentioned, the Feelis will soon be releasing Some Kinda Love, a full album’s worth of live recordings of the band covering the Velvet Underground. For me, and maybe my ears are off a bit, “I’m Waiting for the Man” seems to have more of a rush in the percussive element; it just feels like the tempo is pushing a bit, giving the song more of a growl than I think the original carried. The double album will be released by Bar None on October 13th!

The Feelies Cover Velvet Underground

If you hop on this site from time to time, you’ve likely heard of both these acts, and now the Feelies have officially announced Some Kinda Love, a live recording of the band doing an entire set of Velvet Underground covers, now being put to vinyl! They’ve released their cover of “Rock n’ Roll,” which has me listening back to the original in a totally new way. I mean, the guitar riffs are there, buried beneath the Lou Reed cool curl; you maybe have to put that kick drum into gear and add some space, but strip it down and feels every bit a Feelies tune. I’ve been fortunate enough to get a listen to some of these tunes, and I’m quite partial to “Sweet Jane.” If Some Kinda Love feels like your thing, then get it on October 13th via Bar None.
